Review of Wavemaker
Young barrel-maker Searlus has always longed to sail away to the sacred island of Gildenwood. When he is selected to join one prestigious crew, he feels the divine Wavemaker has finally chosen him for an important destiny. But as repeat disasters strikes their ships, Searlus begins to question everything he believes, even the goodness of the Wavemaker. F. C. Shultz infuses this fanciful seafaring adventure with spiritual flavors from The Chosen. This tale of pirates, sea monsters, and mysterious islands is excellent for fans of stories with strong biblical parallels. Full of beautiful imagery reflecting God’s providence and holiness, this story grants new perspective on the Gospels. Wavemaker marks book 1 of The Wayward Sails series.
Best for: Teen boys and fans of young adult fiction.
Discern: One reference to prostitution, portrayals of battle violence and the murder of a child.
